Type Ii Collagen - Induced Arthritis in Mice
The induction of immunological reactivity to type II collagen, a major component of cartilage, has recently been used to establish an experimental model of arthritis in the rat (1). Trentham and colleagues (1) have shown that the intradermal injection of collagen in Freund's complete or incomplete adjuvant elicits an arthritogenic reaction, specifically with native type II collagen. Arthritis o...
متن کاملSuppression of type II collagen-induced arthritis by intragastric administration of soluble type II collagen.
Although oral administration of protein antigens may lead to specific immunologic unresponsiveness, this method of immunoregulation has not been applied to models of autoimmune disease. Type II collagen-induced arthritis is an animal model of polyarthritis induced in susceptible mice and rats by immunization with type II collagen, a major component of cartilage. Intragastric administration of s...
متن کاملBacterial lipopolysaccharide potentiates type II collagen-induced arthritis in mice
Collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) is an immunologically relevant animal model of human rheumatoid arthritis. Studies comparing the disease incidence in genetically susceptible male and female DBA/1LacJ mice demonstrated that under low density/low stress housing conditions, female mice had earlier onset (day 35) and higher disease incidence (25%) than the male mice (17% at day 49) when immunized ...
متن کاملNative type II collagen-induced arthritis in the rat. II. Relationship between the humoral immune response to native type II collagen and arthritis.
The onset of arthritis in Sprague-Dawley rats occurred between 10-13 days after intradermal injection of collagen when serum IgM and IgG antibody levels to native type II collagen had reached high levels. Although arthritis could be induced in rats immunized with 25-500 microgram native type II collagen in incomplete Freund's adjuvant, higher serum IgM and IgG antibody levels to native type II ...
متن کاملRestricted expression of anti-type II collagen antibody isotypes in mice suppressed for collagen-induced arthritis.
The present study details the time course and isotype distribution of the immune response to type II collagen in collagen-induced arthritic mice and mice suppressed for collagen-induced arthritis. The serum of arthritic mice was observed to contain significantly higher (p less than 0.005) concentrations of antibodies to type II collagen than that of mice suppressed for arthritis at all times te...
